Tessa Reed is a Vancouver-based artist who loves to create cute cat-themed ceramics.
Reed is inspired by their cat, Charlie, who likes to "help" with every stage of the pottery process. Reed describes her as "one of the sweetest cats" but with "the grumpy face" that inspires many of the cartoon cat faces found in their pottery.
